[Mr Pink]

Has anyone broken the news to John Aldridge yet?[/quo

Bale is something special...it is nice that it has been broadly recognised

'So its about who is the 'nicest boy' in the premier league and not who performed the best then, says it all really.'

Guess where that wee gem came from lol

Spurs now have 9 winners of the award, same as Man United.

another gem....

'Means about as much as Greggs Employee of the Month award.'

Yeah, i can imagine that being the reaction if chewy had won it.

Bale made his debut for Southampton on April 17, 2006 in the 2–0 victory over Millwall aged 16 years and 275 days, becoming the second youngest player ever to play for the Saints, after Theo Walcott, who was 132 days younger. He joined Spurs in May 2007 for a fee that was initially a down-payment of £5 million rising to £10 million based on appearances and success but, later agreed at £7 million.

Nice to hear this put correctly for once. A journalist with rare talent for facts clearly

Well done Gareth.

Suarez only got 2 votes apparently - that will cause another meltdown on RAWK

we can expect Jan Molby to call Bale a jug-eared **** publically anytime soon.

I do wonder if City will weigh with a huge bid. If City start showing interest wee Levy's eye will light up like a Christmas tree.

First hunnert million transfer maybe? Knowing DL, that's what he'd be pushing for with moneybags citeh.

Just goes to show, we get the individuals but never quite step up to having the squad to match them.

Shame really. Roll on the new stadium

Interesting that, at the moment in his presser, AVB is correcting himself from last week and saying he expects Bale to stay whether we qualify for CL or not...

Maybe DL has realised the over-arching marketing and promotional beenfits of Gareth outweigh the one-off transfer fee.

Oh yes. I didn't mean to suggest DL would be pushing for a deal.

I'm one of the brave minority calling bullshit on that very notion. DL has NEVER been a selling chairman. Ever. He is a pragmatist though and a great businessman.

Berbatov, Modric, Carrick. They'd all still be here had they wanted to stay. We'd also be looking to win a league title right about now, imo and would have finished top 4 more than twice in the last 6 or 7 yrs.

But I digress.
